I've only had sex once but I thought it would be the responsible thing to do and get hiv/AIDS tested. Even though I've only had sex once something about waiting for the results gave me anxiety. All it takes is one time so if your reading this I strongly encourage you to get tested even if you've only had oral sex get tested. I was thinking about why I got so anxious and why people wouldn't get tested and I think there is a really unhealthy stigma people have when it comes to hiv and AIDS. We know so much now and treatment is really successful for people who have access to it. Don't let fear of the stigma or your results keep you from being tested and taking care of your sexual health.
